We had a great turn out for our Christmas party at the end of November. We now have so many members that we had a bit of a challenge finding a venue that could hold us all - but the Inchture Hotel was a great choice and we made good use of the bus service, too. It was nice to see everyone in something different from lycra and the DJ managed to make sure the dance floor was full for a lot of the night.

Congratulations to everyone who was up collecting one of the many prizes given out in recognition of so many achievements over the last year. Our prizewinners in 2018 were as follows:

Club 5 Mile Race

John Tierney

Fastest Half Marathon

Chris Earl and Anwen Darlington

Fastest Marathon

Vinnie Stewart and Elaine Omand

10K Champion

Vinnie Stewart and Elaine Omand

Half Marathon Champion

Mark Norris and Anwen Darlington

Furthest Away Marathon

Steve Peters

Most Improved Runners

Michael Royden & Ashley Casano

Other prizes were also awarded to the top 3 male and female finishers in our Grand Prix competition. Twenty DRRs competed in at least five of the races, with great competition for the top places throughout the year - and everything changing at Clove which was the final run for this year! Congratulations to the prize winners: first place went to Kevin Greig and Jennifer Massie; second place to Simon Knox and Fiona Callaghan and third place to Duncan Edwards and Lorraine Dunbar. A final shout out to everyone else who finished the Grand Prix. 2018 events will be decided in the near future and we will let you all know so you can get your dates in the diary.
